Business Motivation – December 23, 2009

Riches Lie Within You, Not In Your Material Possessions Wealth without enjoyment is little consolation. Your real riches in life are riches of the head and heart. Satisfaction comes when you appreciate what you have. While success is getting what you want, true happiness is wanting what you get. It’s not how much you have, but how much you enjoy that truly matters. (Reprinted with permission, Sam Maitz, Director of Marketing Technology, Leadership Management® International, Inc.)

Being Successful Is Your Choice You have control over your life. Success or failure is up to you. You control how lucky you are. You create your wealth with your effort. There are no age limits on when you can transform your life. Change is possible at any time. It is essential if you want to grow. The doubts you’ll experience along the way are part of life. Make a plan to attain your success and stick to it. Your life is a marathon, not a short sprint. Accept total responsibility for your actions and remove “QUIT” from your vocabulary. Decide you want success and it can be yours. Success is waiting for you. (Reprinted with permission, Sam Maitz, Director of Marketing Technology, Leadership Management® International, Inc.)

Business Motivation – December 16, 2009

The Secret To Confidence Is Preparation There can be no great courage when there is no confidence or assurance. Half the battle is in the conviction that you can accomplish what you undertake. With practice you’ll come to a point of competence in anything. You’ll find yourself accomplishing your goals with grace and confidence. It’s then that you’ll do things that you never dreamed you could do. You’ll discover powers you never knew existed. Confidence doesn’t come out of nowhere. It’s the result of constant work and dedication. If you’re prepared, you’re able to feel confident.
